I don't think I'll ever agree with you on this one.
"then", to me, implies the code following it is always executed.
"else" implies it's conditional.
In those constructs it's conditional and therefore, to me, "else" is a
better reminder of that.
It would be even better if it was "else if not break:" to make the
meaning clearer. I would agree that it would be even better than that if
it was "then if not break:" (apart from needing the new keyword ;)), as
then the conditional aspect is explicit.
